Hard-wired tool setting probe for drill bit breakage detection and tool length measurement in small machining centres. Measurements of unrivalled speed and precision for micro-tools under the most adverse manufacturing conditions using a modern measuring mechanism based on a linear working principle and optoelectronic switch signal generation.
Z-Pico tool measuring probe – Measure and monitor the smallest tools at up to 2 m/min
BLUM tool measuring probes
Tool measuring probes by BLUM can be used for the most varied measurement and monitoring tasks in CNC machining centres.
Non-contact breakage detection of centric tools such as drills, mills, engraving tools, taps and reamers.
Automatic setting and wear monitoring of tools by quick and precise length measurement.
Compensation of tool wear using measurements between the machining steps. The wear value is stored as an additive correction value in the tool offset memory.
Compensation of the temperature-dependant thermal behaviour of machining centres.
Reliable and fast measurements in coolant thanks to modern measuring mechanism and robust design.
Ideally suited to mass production under the harshest conditions.
